Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 S/FTP outdoor patch cord RJ-45 Cat6 5m Black

Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 S/FTP outdoor patch cord RJ-45 Cat6 5m Black is a Category 6 Class E patch cord designed for outdoor use. It provides high-speed data transmission up to 250 MHz and is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications. The cable features S/FTP shielding, RJ-45 connectors on both ends, a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and latch protection, and a UV-resistant LDPE/PE sheath for long-term outdoor exposure.

Advantages

The cable offers ISO and EN channel compliance for installed cabling systems and tested performance including NEXT up to 250 MHz. Its S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, while the molded boots provide kink protection, strain relief and a latch guard to prevent clip breakage. The UV-resistant outer sheath increases durability for outdoor installations exposed to sunlight and temperature fluctuations. The patch cord is PoE+ ready and compatible with standard RJ-45 network ports.

Suitable for

• Outdoor network links between buildings or equipment

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 connector to the corresponding network port on your devices, switches or patch panels. Ensure connectors click in place and that the molded boots and strain reliefs are properly seated to avoid sharp bends near the connector. Route the cable to avoid physical damage and secure it with appropriate clips or ties. For outdoor runs, use suitable conduits or mounting methods to protect the cable from mechanical stress where necessary.

Usage recommendations

For reliable outdoor performance, avoid prolonged direct mechanical stress and install the cable with moderate slack to prevent tension on the connectors. Use appropriate weatherproofing at entry points into buildings and keep within the manufacturer's specified bending radius to maintain Cat6 performance.
